Hi Everyone!
Finally, I found the Garnier BB Cream and have been trying it for quite a few days. Read my detailed review on it below.
Claims?:
How to Use? ~ Usage Directions:
Spread the BB Cream like your regular moisturizer. Apply with light circular strokes from the middle of your face outwards on perfectly cleansed skin.
Price & Quantity:
Introductory Offer- Rs. 119 Rs.99 for 18grams
My Take:
It comes in a sweet little outer cover with another identical box, which slides through it. On the box is written detailed information about the product, full list of ingredients and even how the products works and what is B.B cream. Thumbs up to Garnier for doing that!
I opened the box and found out a cute little tube, with a long nozzle and a perfect hole in it. The tube dispenses the right amount of product required for the face. Packaging is sturdy and the small tube is perfect for travel purposes.
The product has 24 SPF and vitamin C along with almond extract and minerals. Water is the first ingredient, glycerin is the third, which means that water and glycerin content is high in the product.
I asked for other shades and was surprised to find out that only one shade is available which fortunately matched my skin tone perfectly. I really do not know if dusky beauties will like it.
Well, I tried it and found out that it does not make my skin oily and provides sheer coverage. It does visibly reduce minor imperfections of the skin. It did not break me out and gets absorbed completely in just 10 seconds! It does not make me look like a ghost by leaving behind a whitish cast. I am very happy that most of the products I have tried in the last few months have turned out to be quite well. The Garnier B.B cream really gives a healthy glow to the face as claimed.
I just wish the coverage power is increased. In addition, dry skinned beauties may not find it moisturizing enough during the rough winters. However, for oily skinned girls like me, surely try it and I am sure it will not disappoint you. Fragrance added to the product is mild and pleasant and lingers on.
PROS:
- Does not make face look oily
- Did not break me out
- Fragrance
- Gives a lovely healthy glow to the face
- No whitish cast is left behind
- Gets absorbed in 10 seconds
- Travel friendly
- Affordable
- SPF 24
- High content of Water and glycerin
- Vitamin C, almond extract and mineral content
- Blends in perfectly
- Packaging
CONS:
- Sheer coverage
- Dry skinned girls may not like it during winters
MABH Rating: 4.8/5 (-0.2 for not giving me good coverage)

Nice review again Arpita. I too would like to get it but am concerned about it having just a single shade!
Nice Review Arpi :) the swatches sounds good :)
Hi @Nicekp! I think it will suit most skin tones from fair to medium! But I don’t know whether it will suit dusky beauties :/
@Nandini- Thnkooo :D
Nice review Arpita. I have oily face. I think it should give it a try .
i want to buy this …but it is always out of stock :(
@TaNu- Surely give it a try :D
@Prayati- Try finding them at small cosmetic shops :D Big one’s always have them sold out :P
Nice review Arpita, last time when I saw that Deepika Padukone wala ad, i was very curious but now I rely on your word. Wud purchase it today only. But just a small doubt…i have mid-way complexion that is with lttle yellow undertones…would that suit me. or does it come is other shades?
It has only one shade. I think it will suit you. :) But ask them if they can do a swatch before you purchase it :D
nice review! :)
should i use another sunscreen with this? or the sunscreen present in this is enough?
I think you should use a good mattifying sunscreen underneath.
I missed this post haaahhhhhhhh :O But nice review Arpi I am gonna get one soon
Thank you :D I think you should try to avoid it during summers, if you have oily skin :)
